Welcome to the Wildcat’s
Home Page - Rockford, Illinois' Youth Cross Country Team



The Wildcats is a Youth Cross Country Team that started running in 1997. The program is designed to let kids have fun while learning about running. The ages of our runners range from 5-18. The program is open to all who might be interested in running. We compete in a series of cross-country meets during the fall, beginning in early October. The Wildcats host a meet on October 29, 2011, which is open to all youth runners. The Wildcats are a part of the Rockford Road Runners, a Road Runners Club of America organization member club. Rockford Wildcats are also affiliated with AAU and USA Track and Field.

Applications for 2013 Scholarships must be submitted by May 31, 2013.

The Rockford Road Runner’s youth running club the Rockford Wildcats began giving out scholarships to Wildcat alumni in 2007. This is made possible by the ongoing generosity of members of the runner community and the dedication of Wildcat coaches and board members. The Wildcats are a free youth running program open to all children in the area interested in learning about running. We are grateful to those who continue to make it possible for us to continue rewarding those who not only go on to excel in academics, community service and running.

In the past six years 18 high school graduates have now been awarded scholarships. We gratefully acknowledge the generosity of the Rockford Road Runner members who have made this possible with donations to the Rockford Wildcats Youth Cross Country Team.
